Here we will show you how to calculate 1/4 divided by 3/4. We will give you the answer in fraction form and in decimal form. Show
Here is 1/4 divided by 3/4 displayed mathematically in colors:
The numbers in 1/4 divided by 3/4 are labeled below:1 = dividend numerator 4 = dividend denominator 3 = divisor numerator 4 = divisor denominator To make it a fraction form answer, you multiply the dividend numerator by the divisor denominator to make a new numerator. Furthermore, you multiply the dividend denominator by the divisor numerator to make a new denominator: Thus, the answer to 1/4 divided by 3/4 in fraction form is: To make the answer to 1/4 divided by 3/4 in decimal form, you simply divide the numerator by the denominator from the fraction answer above: 4/12 = 0.3333 The answer is rounded to the nearest four decimal points if necessary. 4/12 can be simplified to 1/3. Calculator UseUse this fraction calculator for adding, subtracting, multiplying and dividing fractions. Answers are fractions in lowest terms or mixed numbers in reduced form. Input proper or improper fractions, select the math sign and click Calculate. This is a fraction calculator with steps shown in the solution. If you have negative fractions insert a minus sign before the numerator. So if one of your fractions is -6/7, insert -6 in the numerator and 7 in the denominator. Sometimes math problems include the word "of," as in What is 1/3 of 3/8? Of means you should multiply so you need to solve 1/3 × 3/8. To do math with mixed numbers (whole numbers and fractions) use the Mixed Numbers Calculator.

Fraction FormulasThere is a way to add or subtract fractions without finding the least common denominator (LCD). This method involves cross multiplication of the fractions. See the formulas below. You may find that it is easier to use these formulas than to do the math to find the least common denominator. The formulas for multiplying and dividing fractions follow the same process as described above. Adding FractionsThe formula for adding fractions is: \( \dfrac{a}{b} + \dfrac{c}{d} = \dfrac{ad + bc}{bd} \) Example steps: \( \dfrac{2}{6} + \dfrac{1}{4} = \dfrac{(2\times4) + (6\times1)}{6\times4} \) \( = \dfrac{14}{24} = \dfrac {7}{12} \) Subtracting FractionsThe formula for subtracting fractions is: \( \dfrac{a}{b} - \dfrac{c}{d} = \dfrac{ad - bc}{bd} \) Example steps: \( \dfrac{2}{6} - \dfrac{1}{4} = \dfrac{(2\times4) - (6\times1)}{6\times4} \) \( = \dfrac{2}{24} = \dfrac {1}{12} \) Multiplying FractionsThe formula for multiplying fractions is: \( \dfrac{a}{b} \times \dfrac{c}{d} = \dfrac{ac}{bd} \) Example steps: \( \dfrac{2}{6} \times \dfrac{1}{4} = \dfrac{2\times1}{6\times4} \) \( = \dfrac{2}{24} = \dfrac {1}{12} \) Dividing FractionsThe formula for dividing fractions is: \( \dfrac{a}{b} \div \dfrac{c}{d} = \dfrac{ad}{bc} \) Example steps: \( \dfrac{2}{6} \div \dfrac{1}{4} = \dfrac{2\times4}{6\times1} \) \( = \dfrac{8}{6} = \dfrac {4}{3} = 1 \dfrac{1}{3} \) Related CalculatorsTo perform math operations on mixed number fractions use our Mixed Numbers Calculator. This calculator can also simplify improper fractions into mixed numbers and shows the work involved. If you want to simplify an individual fraction into lowest terms use our Simplify Fractions Calculator. For an explanation of how to factor numbers to find the greatest common factor (GCF) see the Greatest Common Factor Calculator. If you are simplifying large fractions by hand you can use the Long Division with Remainders Calculator to find whole number and remainder values. NotesFollow
